How can you tell if your using 3d acceleration (in OpenGL)?

Anyone know of a quick way to determine if the user has
hardware acceleration or not?

I also noticed that you can't win with Rendition, you try
coding something in DX6.x, and it crashes. You try
coding something in openGL, and it crashes.

ARGH!

Hopefully new drivers are comming before I lose all my hair!
